Harrison and wife Laura Koontz were married by Rev. Ira Haning. Rev. Haning was Harrison's brother-in-law (husband of Irene Wood).
Census records from 1880 show Harrison & wife Laura living with a boarder Truman Mauck, cousin via his mother Rebecca Mauck[1].
Death record shows wife as Emily Wood, more research needed. Emily is presumably a second wife, as Laura (Koontz) Wood died 1890.
Buried Calvary Baptist Cemetery.
Note: There is another Harrison Wood (aka W. H. H. Wood), b. circa 1833, who married Emily Lawrence on 1 April 1856 in Coshocton, Ohio. No known relation.
